RTM Limbang FM 94.5MHz from Bukit Sagan Rudang was detected with mild signal in Batu Niah, Sarawak.

During my Sarawak trip last week, I also went to Miri by departing from Bintulu as my day trip on 11th April 2024 in conjunction with Hari Raya Aidilfitri holiday.

 

Miri was my another core region for radio DXing. From Bintulu to Miri, I dropped by Batu Niah and Bekenu before reaching Miri city.

 

Batu Niah was my first stop for radio DXing in Miri Division. In Batu Niah, I could receive two RTM local radio stations such as Miri FM (95.1MHz & 95.7MHz) and Bintulu FM (97.5MHz), however I tuned Limbang FM there via FM 94.5MHz from Bukit Sagan Rudang.

 


Miri FM was the clearest radio station in Batu Niah on 95.1MHz (Bukit TT844 Suai) and 95.7MHz (Bukit Lambir), meanwhile Bintulu FM 97.5MHz (Bukit Setiam) signal was quite weak there.

 

Limbang FM signal could be only detected with very mild signal via FM 94.5MHz from Bukit Sagan Rudang which covers Mendamit, meanwhile FM 104.9MHz from Bukit Mas has no signal.

 

Alongside Sarawak FM 100.0MHz which is transmitted from Bukit Sagan Rudang, RTM Limbang FM 94.5MHz was also the furthest radio station tuned in Batu Niah, Sarawak.

 

Limbang FM also relays Wai FM Iban from 0000-0900 hours, then 1800-0000 hours, meanwhile it airs local programs from 0900-1800 hours by following languages below:

 

1. Malay: 0900-1200 hours

2. Lun Bawang: 1200-1500 hours

3. Bisaya: 1500-1800 hours

 

- Frequency: FM 94.5MHz

- Power: 0.1kW

- Transmitter site: Bukit Sagan Rudang, Limbang Division, Sarawak

- Receiving site: Batu Niah, Miri Division, Sarawak

- Distance: 150km
